I'm setting up a new Time Machine backup because... well, because *curses watchdog errors*
It's underway at the moment, and I was wondering if the backup is fixed? As in, when Time Machine prepares the backup it has that amount to backup there (961.73GB) - if I delete some files while it's backing up, will those deleted files also be backed up or will that first backup still have those files?

Once TM has completed a full backup it will contain any file you delete later. The next new incremental backups after you delete the file will not

Well it hasn’t completed the backup though, it’s still at 300~ of 961GB. And I’ve deleted some stuff. So yeah, will the deleted things be in the backup then?
